Biography: Was Jesus a libertarian?
Shifting moral responsibility to government, despite the intentions, serves to undermine Gods gift of free will and to destroy the natural process which develops character in man through consequence and conscience.
Furthermore...the moral standards of government are fickle and subjective...certain to inevitably violate our own standards of virtue.
Jesus never petitioned the Roman authorities to legislate morality...He simply commanded that we turn from sin.
